1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

You try the electric tape hack?

 

Milwaukee pack out hack I saw in action today.

 

No. I can. Really feel like back pressure rather than latching trouble

They watched a ChrisFixx video lol

 

Hey since I know both you guys like junkyard diving, if either of you see the front bed plugs for our trucks and want to grab me three of em, I'll give you a ZJ.
I'm missing the two lower ones and one top one. I believe they are all the same, but not certain. I guess I should've looked at my other truck before I left for work.

Im missing a couple too. Pulled them loose before the topper to keep the water from pooling in the bed. Guess they flew out at some point.

 

The previous owner removed the passenger top one to run wiring for two CB antennas. I just found the mounts today, once I removed the bed cover. I knew it had a CB when I bought it, but I had no clue where the antenna had been attached, since they were MIA. Not sure why he needed two. I'll keep one in case I ever decide to do a permanent comms set up on my 4x4.
I'm not sure why he removed the bottom ones. He used to haul motor cycles. I gave Casey the rear motorcycle mount that was in the bed. The front of the bed is caved in pretty good and so was the tailgate panel.

 

If I park nose down on an incline, mine would fill the bed with water when it rained. The drain holes in those are tiny and plug with gunk easily. So I would occasionally walk by and see the bed had 8” of water in the front and reach underneath and poke those plugs up from the bottom to let the bed drain. Toolbox was in the way from easily reseating them after. Guess I left them that way and they blew out.

 

Do I want to ask what a ZJ is?
NM, Urban dic. tells all... if he can hook that up someone should jump on that deal.

 

Ahem. Behold, ZJ.

 

Late reply but there are 2 bolts on the back.

I think ide take the other zj instead lmao

 

I was thinking jeep, but brohons answer works too. But I'd only take the jeep if it was a stick. I don't remember if they made the jeep in a stick though so I may end up getting a handy.

 

Not sure if this is good or bad news for you (and your prospective imaginary handsy), but the ZJ was indeed available in stick shift. They are considered the “holy grail” among ZJ enthusiasts.

 

Yep. I learned about that a few years ago. Very rare.

Appreciate it! I got it pulled the other day. There is a couple of bolts holding harness junk up against the back of it. Different than on the early tundras.

 

That's pretty cool. Thank you for the info! I'd seen plenty of maual cherokees, but never a ZJ. I still dream about a 4bt/6spd swapped WJ on 37s.

 

Someone who shall not be named gave me a 55" TV a while back with the instructions that it gets mounted in my garage. Do you all think it would make any sense on this wall? I would get one of those telescoping mounts either way. There is no electrical so I'd have to get an extension cord and run it along the top of the blocks.



This is the other option but but there is plumbing behind the wall and I'm always nervous of drilling into that or the electrical.

 

I like the first place. With it being on the same wall as the window, it's less likely to be seen by a theif

 

If you have access above in the first pic it shouldn't be too hard to drop a new outlet.

2nd pic if you use a finish nail you can find the studs pretty easy by just pushing it in so there's minimal danger to the plumbing.

 

Whats the point of a garage tv?

 

You could play a how to video while you do something for the first time.
You could sit back with a beer and watch something when you're done.

 

Drive-in movie?

 

Sports game on while you wrench

I have no place else for it so it's either the garage or I re-gift it.

 

Ok, sportsball makes sense.

I vote window wall, too.
